liver cancer

Liver cancer, "the cancer of cancer", "King of cancer," said Beijing Tumor Hospital, director of hepatobiliary surgery Professor Xing Baocai, hepatitis after liver cirrhosis of the liver cancer in high risk groups, the current high-risk groups of liver cancer has more than one billion.
Early detection can effectively control 85 per cent is already advanced when found
Xing Baocai Director said that the HCC has been referred to as the "cancer of the King", because of its high grade, the faster the progress of the disease, the patient no early general discomfort.
Nearly 85% of the patients with physical symptoms to treatment, often in the late already has missed the opportunity for surgery, the patient's physical condition or illness has not surgery. Gengzhulin all sorry to say that "early detection of liver cancer and surgical resection patients, the prognosis is better effect. Early discovery, early treatment, liver or can be effectively controlled."
Liver cancer mortality rates in malignant tumors rank third. According to World Health Organization statistics, the rest of the world the incidence of primary liver cancer are rising trend, of which nearly 50 per cent of the new cases appeared in China.
Culprit is the high-risk population with liver cirrhosis hepatitis B carriers
According to Director of the Xing Bao, China's most patients with liver cancer have a history of hepatitis and cirrhosis, the basic disease process is: Hepatitis → → cirrhotic liver cancer. Those who have the pathogenesis of chronic hepatitis, liver cirrhosis patients, and the incidence has not only found blood inside the "Daisanyang", "Xiaosanyang" hepatitis infection, liver cancer should also belong to the high-risk groups.
In China, there are nearly 30 million hepatitis B patients, and more than 100 million carriers of hepatitis B in liver function repeated damage, the repair process, it is prone to cancer cells. Many have experienced hepatitis B patients with liver cancer, cirrhosis of the liver until the process of carcinogenesis, hepatitis B is like a time bomb inside the human body. In addition, it is worth noting that China's population infected with the hepatitis B virus have a considerable proportion, although the eventual development of a hepatitis B patients is only a few, but many infected people do not know they have been infected.
Blood tests done every year insist high B-AFP tips liver cancer
High-risk groups how to make their own away from liver cancer? Xing Baocai Director said, a very simple blood test annually persist, B-can be done.
Blood serum tumor markers in check - serum tumor markers in the case of a tumor, in the blood components increased material and help liver cancer diagnosis. Liver cancer cells can secrete a called alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) material, this kind of material in a period of human embryos, disappeared after birth; blood were found in elevated alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) Note the presence of hepatocellular carcinoma cells. Ultrasound imaging (B-) has been widely used in the census liver cancer, early diagnosis is conducive.
If the high-risk groups can be conducted on a regular basis in accordance with the above method health survey, we will be able to "three early" to create favourable conditions for early surgical resection opportunities will increase, coupled with the application of new technologies, the effect of greatly enhanced.
Liver cancer treatment, the longest period in various means of survival has reached 30
At present, the treatment of liver cancer means there are many, including: surgery, interventional therapy, radiofrequency treatment, and Chinese medicine treatment.
Long-term treatment of postoperative liver cancer is not satisfactory, even if surgery more thoroughly, after five years, there will be more than half of patients will relapse. But again liver cancer recurrence after surgical resection, the 5-year survival rate is up to 50%. This requires surgical resection in patients after chemotherapy, with the combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine treatment. Discharged after every 2-3 months, two years after the B-reviewed every six months, AFP and lung X-ray, so early detection of recurrence and metastasis, and to create conditions for the second surgery.
At present, the early stage liver cancer after surgery the longest survival time of patients has reached 30 years. Surgical treatment of liver cancer or the prospect of broad, as long as taking early, thorough and positive treatment, liver, it would no longer be "incurable."
